                    <p>
                        To quit or not to quit? That is sometimes an extremely difficult decision to come
                        to. There are times when we may need to change our direction, our job, or our location,
                        or quit a destructive or "just- plain-not-going-anywhere" situation. The important
                        thing is not to quit too soon. However, it's equally important not to hang in too
                        long and to keep "whipping a dead horse!" But how do we know when to hang in and
                        when to quit? After we've done everything we can to redeem a bad situation without
                        success, sometimes we still don't know. It's then that we need to commit our situation
                        to God, seek his direction, and just plainly trust him that the decision we make
                        will be in harmony with His will for us. In times like these, I ask God to give
                        me the insight to see the reality</p>
                    <p>
                        of the situation in question. Once I see the truth, I usually know what I need to
                        do. Then I pray for the courage to do it! God hasn't promised to make our decisions
                        for us or tell us what to do. What he has promised, providing we want and ask for
                        it is wisdom, guidance, direction, and understanding and to be with us as long as
                        we are genuinely seeking to walk in His ways. But when it comes to growing in "faith,
                        love and every grace," that we never quit!</p>

                        <b>Friend of Sinners</b></p>
                    <p>
                        Of the two kinds of sinners in Jesus’s day, whom did he prefer to mix with? The
                        honest ones-those who admitted their sins, weaknesses, and failures. As long as
                        I deny my own reality (sins, weakness, failures, and my dark side) I cannot truly
                        relate to other people. As Richard C. Halverson, former chaplain of the U.S. Senate
                        wrote in one of his weekly letters: "Only sinners can relate. Sinners enjoy authentic
                        fellowship. Saints don't! People who pose as saints aren't free to remove their
                        masks. Under pressure to project conventional piety, they are unable to open up
                        and share themselves."
                    </p>
                    <p>
                        Upholding the traditional religious image, they remain invulnerable in human relationships
                        because they dare not expose their real selves. They major in propositions rather
                        than persons ... share their victories but never their failures. Meeting head to
                        head instead of heart to heart, protecting themselves against discovery, they ricochet
                        against each other like marbles.</p>
                    <p>
                        “The authentic saint is oblivious to his sainthood, deeply aware of his unworthiness,
                        sensitive to his failure, confesses he is a sinner, which makes possible true fellowship.
                        Sinners acknowledge their inadequacy, lean heavily on God's grace, and identify
                        quickly with need in others. “Recognizing all men are sinners, unwilling to hide
                        from the truth, they share their weaknesses, confess their sin to one another, and
                        do not fear vulnerability. They come together like grapes, crushed and fragrant,
                        dependent upon each other, and God.”</p>
